Its simple, modern rooms are a calm retreat from Lorient's bustling streets, while the on-site bar serves up a mean local cider.

Crónicas de Lorient
Lorient, a city on the south coast of Brittany, was founded in 1666 by French engineer Jean-Baptiste Colbert as a strategic port for the Compagnie du Levant, a French trading company. The city's rich history is reflected in its stunning 18th-century architecture, including the majestic Quai Saint-Louis, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Lorient's cultural identity is deeply rooted in its Celtic heritage, with the city hosting the annual Fête de la Bretagne, a vibrant celebration of Breton music, dance, and traditions. In recent years, the city has undergone significant regeneration, with a focus on sustainable tourism and preserving its unique cultural heritage. Today, Lorient is a thriving city, proud of its history and its people.

Principales atracciones en Lorient
💡 Best in late spring when the roses are out—bring your own sandwich; the bench by the pond is popular with locals.
💡 Arrive before 10am for the best oysters and get a crêpe from the stall at the north exit—€3.50 and the best in town.
💡 Go at dusk when the concrete structure is lit from below—dramatic and few tourists. No need to book for the free areas.
💡 Walk east along the coastal path from the beach for a 20-minute loop with views over the harbour—free and quieter than the beach itself.
💡 Skip the paid indoor section on a sunny day—the free outdoor docks and the view of the trimarans are just as good.
